### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Definition of Modulation Index**: - The modulation index, often denoted by \( m \) or \( \mu \), is defined as the ratio of the amplitude of the modulating signal (the signal that carries the information) to the amplitude of the carrier wave signal (the signal that is modulated). - Mathematically, it can be expressed as: \[ m = \frac{A_m}{A_c} \] ...
